Symptoms of polio in Shillai
Paonta Sahib - the Gram Panchayat Development Block Shillai Ashyadi a seven- year-old children were found to have signs of the disease such as polio . After coming to the Department of Health of the matter is stirred . According to the Department by sending information relating to other children in the village departmental team Anderkhate process is under investigation . Ashyadi past the village's seven -year-old boy had fever . Kin took Nahan district hospital for treatment , where PGI Chandigarh lad was sent off after a few trials . At the moment the child is undergoing treatment at PGI Chandigarh and is said to be in a coma . According to information reaching the hospital after child Nahan district health Mukyayl Shillai Bimo affect the health of the children of the village were ordered to investigate . However, vigilance department in terms of the process is the process of being told . Hrmohindra Sirmour CMO Dr. Singh said the possibility of polio in children is 0.1 of a percentage . Such cases are called AFP case . After visiting such case the department is cautious . Check the health of the children of the village is under extreme vigilance processes . February 14th, 2014

Abstract
Non-polio enteroviruses (NPEVs) have been reported frequently in association with acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) cases during Polio Surveillance Programs (PSPs) worldwide. However, there is limited understanding on the attributes of their infections. This study reports characteristics of NPEVs isolated from AFP cases, investigated during PSPs held in 2009?2010, in Karnataka and Kerala states of south-western India having varied climatic conditions. NPEV cell culture isolates derived from stool specimens that were collected from 422 of 2186 AFP cases (<1?14 years age) and 17 of 41 asymptomatic contacts; and details of all AFP cases/contacts were obtained from National Polio Laboratory, Bangalore. The distribution of NPEV infections among AFP cases and circulation pattern of NPEV strains were determined by statistical analysis of the data. Genotyping of all NPEV isolates was carried out by partial VP1 gene sequencing and phylogenetic analysis. NPEV positive AFP cases were significantly higher in children aged <2 years; with residual paralysis; in summer months; and in regions with relatively hot climate. Genotyping of NPEVs identified predominance of human enteroviruses (HEV)-B species [81.9%?Echoviruses (E): 57.3%; coxsackieviruses (CV) B: 15%; numbered EVs: 8.9%; CVA9: 0.7%] and low levels of HEV-A [14.5%?CVA: 6%; numbered EVs: 8.5%] and HEV-C [3.6%?CVA: 2.6%; numbered EVs: 1%] species, encompassing 63 genotypes. EV76 (6.3%) and each of E3, CVB3 and E9 (4.97%) were found frequently during 2009 while E11 (6.7%), CVB1 (6.1%), E7 (5.1%) and E20 (5.1%) were detected commonly in 2010. A marked proportion of AFP cases from children aged <2 years; presenting with fever; and from north and south interior parts of Karnataka state was detected with E/numbered EVs than that found with CVA/CVB. This study highlights the extensive genetic diversity and diverse circulation patterns of NPEV strains in AFP cases from different populations and climatic conditions.

Antigenic Diversity of Enteroviruses Associated with Nonpolio Acute Flaccid Paralysis, India, 2007?2009

Abstract
Because of the broadened acute flacid paralysis (AFP) definition and enhanced surveillance, many nonpolio AFP (NP-AFP) cases have been reported in India since 2005. To determine the spectrum of nonpolio enterovirus (NPEV) serotypes associated with NP-AFP from polio-endemic and -free regions, we studied antigenic diversity of AFP-associated NPEVs. Of fecal specimens from 2,786 children with NP-AFP in 1 polio-endemic and 2 polio-free states, 823 (29.5%) were positive for NPEVs in RD cells, of which 532 (64.6%) were positive by viral protein 1 reverse transcription PCR. We identified 66 serotypes among 581 isolates, with enterovirus 71 most frequently (8.43%) detected, followed by enterovirus 13 (7.1%) and coxsackievirus B5 (5.0%). Most strains within a serotype represented new genogropups or subgenogroups. Agents for ≈35.0% and 70.0% of culture-positive and -negative cases, respectively, need to be identified. Association of human enterovirus with NP-AFP requires better assessment and understanding of health risks of NPEV infections after polio elimination.

Suspected polio patient shifted to Kolhapur hospital
Nikhil Deshmukh,TNN | May 9, 2014, 12.35 AM IST
KOLHAPUR: A 12-year-boy from Aanur village in Kagal tehsil of Kolhapur district has been found with polio-like symptoms, reported the primary health centre. The PHC located in Chikhali village of Kagal tehsil has reported the case to its senior officers.
The boy complained of pain in his legs on April 29 and was taken to the Chikhali-based PHC. After check up, the local medical officers asked the parents to shift him to a city-based hospital with better facilities. The family took him to a private hospital in Nipani on April 30. The local medical officers asked the family to shift the boy to Kolhapur for further treatment and he was shifted to a Kolhapur private hospital the next day.
The district health officer, after receiving a report from the PHC, sent a team to the private hospital and collected the samples of the boy on May 3. The samples were sent to the Haffkin Institute in Mumbai on May 4 and the report is expected within 15 days...
Got a case of polio vaccine
Published: Tue, 03 Jun two thousand and fourteen 12:30 AM (IST) | Updated: Tue, 03 Jun 2 014 12:30 AM (IST)By: Editorial Team
In the case of polio vaccine came Bastar. India has been declared polio-free country, in which case it is questioning this claim. The polio virus medical authorities are not saying this environment.
The Health Department is claiming that Chhaprbanpuri gram block of the district's four-year-old Bharat father Tokapal stocking during the campaign was given frequent doses of polio vaccine. Meanwhile, the boy suddenly fell two months ago and his extremities were numb.
After admission to Mecoj doctors expressed fears of polio in India stool (feces) and other regional polio lab samples were sent for testing in Kolkata.
The report from the Veedeepivi (Deraiwhd poliovirus vaccine) was confirmed by the treatment of the child, and he is now healthy.
The possibility of an episode in a million
According to experts in child Bharat caused by viruses that are found in the area but did not show signs of polio polio vaccine (live virus) because it happened. The polio vaccine is administered to children in a million of them so that the possibility of being called Veedeepivi. According to Dr. C. Matriy Dhamtari and Mahasamund district in the year 2013 has seen the episode.
Be re-vaccination
The highlight of the episode after the Department of Health during the pulse polio campaign cent - per claim in question are supplying vaccine to children. While in office Chhaprbanpuri Mapap round (More) polio vaccination campaign. Children aged zero to five years on the pattern of PPI drug is given in two cycles. Not only informed of such cases against polio and all segments of the district medical officer, doctors have been given special training.
When the body vulnerable to attack
Such cases are very rare.
Wild polio virus is not it. The polio vaccine is given to a child and the child is not immune to the disease, then such a situation arise. The polio virus is not related to the issue of child Bastar.
- Dr. Subhash Pandey, state immunization officer Raipur
Two months ago a tad Tokapal block district of Kolkata Regional Lab Veedeepivi polio was confirmed. Subsequently, the child was provided with treatment in Mapap vaccination rounds. Bharat child is now fully healthy after treatment.
